WTDC Expected Output


Expected Output

The WTDC-06 is expected to adopt the Doha Declaration and the Doha Action Plan. The Doha Declaration should represent a common vision and strategy for achieving balanced telecommunication development, as well as setting goals and objectives for the next four years.

The Doha Action Plan should become a practical roadmap for development partners, from both governments and the private sector. It will include specific programmes which together should enable all stakeholders in telecommunication development to bring the applications and services that meet the needs of all communities and harness the power of ICT for their socio-economic and personal well-being in a sustainable way. The Action Plan should deliver concrete solutions to achieve the objectives of the World Summit on the Information Society related to the global availability of ICT for all.

In addition to the programmes, the Action Plan should include six global initiatives relating to private sector, gender, youth, indigenous people, people with disabilities and on emergency telecommunications. Two cross-cutting activities on Statistics and Information on Telecommunications/ICTs and on Partnerships are also expected to be adopted.
